A team from Algenol and Georgia Tech calculated the life cycle energy and greenhouse gas emissions for three different system scenarios for this proposed ethanol production process, using process simulations and thermodynamic calculations. MJ/MJEtOH, and the net life cycle greenhouse gas emissions range from 29.8 wt % to 5 wt %.
